No festival or vrat falls today for your region.
That is a real answer, not a gap — most days of the year are ordinary days,
and a calendar that always has something to sell you is not a calendar.
Coming up
- Sankashti Chaturthi tomorrow Wed, 26 Dec
- Kalashtami in 4 days Sat, 29 Dec
- Saphala Ekadashi in 7 days Tue, 1 Jan
